[JasonX 0]

OK, this is taken from a variety of sources on the internet as spoilers about the upcoming sixth season of the Shield have been making the way onto the net for the last couple of months.

 

If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read and to help you hit back button, I'm putting a spoiler space block before I start with the spoilers:

As it stands at the moment, Forrest Whittaker will be back for only two episodes in season six. His first episode back will be episode 602, which will wrap up the entire IAD storyline. Corrine will play a role in Vic's desperate strategy to stop Kavanaugh.

 

By all accounts, Shane will get away with murdering Lem. Part of what helps him will be the fact that Dutch will be confronted with a suspect who has been bragging about killing Lem only to find out that the guy is just a dumb punk who was trying to take credit for Lem's death.

 

Anthony Anderson will also be back for at least one episode in season six, though at the moment he won't appear until around episode 606. He's still in jail by the way....

 

The El Salvadorians will be in the picture for season six as the big bad, with the Mexican, Jamaican, and Armenian crime syndicates lurking in the background. Claudette will also have a major role in season six in terms of dealing with the various enemies she's made trying to destroy her tenure as Captain as well as her involvement with the Strike Team in terms of trying to salvage the team from it's latest loss.

 

Two new characters join the cast for season six: Clifton Collins Jr. ("Traffic", "Capote") will be playing a Federal Agent (no word what agency he'll work for, though rumor is that it's going to be the DEA).

 

The second one is Alex O'Loughlin (AKA the guy from the crappy "Man-Thing" film); O'Loughlin plays Lem's replacement on the Strike Team named Kevin Hiatt.

 

O'Loughlin shows up in episode 604 and is basically Claudette's hand-picked golden boy. He'll be taking Lem's spot on the team as well as being annointed by Claudette as Vic's successor as Strike Team leader once Vic's forced retirement date comes upon him. While Vic will be receptive to the newest member of the team, even as he tries to get TPTB to think he's truly turned over a new leaf in order to save his job, Shane will be giving Kevin the cold shoulder.

Good God, this aren't MASSIVE spoilers. I thought you were going to say Vic gets killed in the first episode or something.

I too was expecting a "Vic is dying for sure" type of spoiler.

 

If they don't bring Tavon back for this season then they won't have realized their full potential. It'd work well, given how close Lem and Tavon were.
